Whatever, Fish. Like I said, I really was a volunteer for the Bush campaign. And I met a lot of great people this past election while volunteering. Some were in their 70s and 80s and knew that this might be the last election they'd ever see. And We weren't always joyfully optomistic about Bush's chances to win. But not one of us would have ever gone out and proudly spread the kind of doom and gloom you did in the weeks leading up to the election.
You took every opportunity thrown at you to say that Bush was toast and was going to lose. And on election day, the first chance you had you came here to gloat and tell everyone you were right. And for what? So you could come to a message board and gloat to a bunch of strangers, who wouldn't know you if they passed you on the street, and say how right you were in predicting your own candidate's downfall? The way I see it, this either makes you a troll or somebody who's truly got his priorities out of whack. Even if there was any truthfullness in what you had to say, what purpose did it serve to come to a political message board that is used by Republicans, Democrats, and Indepenents and continue to say all that crap. Seems like the only purpose it would serve would be to depress the Bush voters, the very same ones that you as a campaign worker (or so you say) are suppose to be trying to get to go to the polls and vote. There's a fine line between being pesimistic about your campaign's chances and gleefully and joyfully anticipating every bit of bad news and spreading it around with the utmost pride. Not once did you ever acknowledge or say anything good about Bush of his campaign. But you took every tabolid story that portrayed the Bush camp as being in peril and every poll that showed Kerry leading and you posted it here like it was your own personal golden trophy.
Why don't you do us all a favor. When the next campaign rolls around, please go work for the Democrats. Because we don't need your kind on our side.

Read this thread through from begining to end, it'll take about 45 minutes of your time, but it's well worth it for some good laughs.

EVERYTHING depends on Ohio. Bush will not win Wisconsin or Minnesota.

Kerry will win, and Bush won't carry Wisconsin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Michigan or Iowa. The decision to waste time and money there will be proven to be idiotic. And the GOP GOTV 72 hour plan will be a flop. Everyone remember this prediction and you can congratulate me later.
And if you are beyond wrong, can we point our fingers at you and laugh?
Absolutely, you can call me every name in the book and make fun of me
for the next four years
. BUT I deserve the kudos if I'm correct....
We got 3 1/2 years to go guys!!!!

It would be interesting to know how many current posters are still here because of this one thread. I joined this board in late summer/early fall of last year mainly for the soul purpose of getting election news and the inside details on all the polls. When the election ended, I didn't have any plans to stick around here. But this one funny ass thread is what kept me coming back here for the next two months after the election. Had it not been for this, I can almost guarantee you that I probably would have never visited this site again after the election was over.
I wonder how many other people this thread kept from leaving this board.
